The company has been around for over 40 years, and it’s known for its high-quality coffee drinks and baked goods. 

The job market for baristas at Starbucks isn’t very competitive because there aren’t many openings available each year. 

If you want to work at the company and enjoy its benefits, this blog post has everything you must know to get hired soon!!

How to apply

The easiest and fastest way to apply is to do it online. 

The first step is to go to Starbucks.ca/careers, then you can write the position available on the bar “search jobs” or click directly on search jobs. 

This will redirect you to the website where you can filter the offers by location and/or job type.

This will lead you to a job description where all the details are listed: job description, experience required, basic qualifications, knowledge skills, and abilities,…

Once you choose an offer, click on apply now HERE. The website will ask for some basic information and your resume.

Another option is to call the U.S.-based hiring center at 1-800-282-6642 and ask for an application form. If you want to apply by mail, send your resume along with three letters of reference to:

Starbucks Canada

Careers Department PO Box 1260 Stn D

Toronto ON M5W 1E8

Finally, you can try walking to a store, or having a coffee a few times in a place, trying to build a relationship with one of the baristas–a friendly relationship, of course, not a love affair.

Later on, you can tell them that you would like to work in the store and ask them whether they could not help you with your dream job. 

Officially it is not allowed to apply for a job in this way, but it does happen. 

At the end of the day personal referrals still count for many new hires at STARBUCKS, and in any other famous retailer in the world.

The requirements

You need to be over 16 years old and have a Social Insurance Number (SIN).

The minimum education requirement is Grade 10, according to the National Occupational Classification (NOC). 

This means that you must have a high school diploma or equivalent. 

You also need to be able to prove that you have been in Canada for at least three years and are able to work in your field of study or training.

In addition, Starbucks Canada requires all applicants who apply for jobs through their website or application form during this period of time:
